I'm glancing down the list of threads here and I see a bunch of people that have 3" barrelled whatevers. Why did you settle on the three inch? Why do you love it?
Personally, I have a 3" stainless Taurus 85. I wanted the three inch because it seemed to balance better in my hand than a two inch snubbie, and the longer sight radius doesn't hurt either. Also better ballistics, less muzzle flip, etc, etc, etc. Now with a set of Pachmayr compac grips it got even better! This is a IWB-carry gun and anything bigger seemed too big and bulky, and anything smaller was too hard to handle and control. It also doubles as my wife's 'nightstand gun'.
Sound off gentlemen (and ladies ) !
